P3NW177 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Hi all,New here and this is my first post. So first of all... Hi.Now onto the issue. Bought a Yamaha YBR125 13 plate back at the end of August to get me between home and the station.It’s been pretty smooth riding in the most part however every now and then I’d be riding and the engine and electrics would cut out. The garage said it was likely because I had the house keys etc all attached and that them bouncing about whilst riding is probably jogging the switch too much and turning the bike off.Took the other keys off and seemed to solve the problem for a while.However recently it’s been harder and harder to actually get the electrics to turn on before even starting the bike. I can stand there for 5-10 minutes turning the key with nothing happening.Battery has been checked and changed and this hasn’t made any difference. Has anyone experienced any similar issues at all? Or very open to any advice anyone might have on what to check?Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leener Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Welcome to the forum. Make sure to introduce yourself in the newbies section Sounds like the ignition switch is failing to make contact. I'd go round the wiring and make sure that nothing has come loose or damaged, and take apart the ignition to inspect it's operation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimblet Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I had the same issue on a 2011 YBR, swapped out the ignition barrel and that sorted it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
